What kind of fan are you?

Been on here for 2 years and I have learned a lot not only about our club but about our fan base too.

For example our fan base is split into three groups

First is the plastics: these fans will only go to matches when we are ether in championship or look like we may be promoted some are hard plastic and never go to a game or buy a shirt but will tell people they are a fan if promoted

Second is the optimists: optimist will always look on the bright side and see millers as the best team in the world. Optimists are mainly in 2 groups (hard) won't hear a bad word about the club will always say there is times to turn things around even when there realy isn't. (Soft) these fans are optimistic sure but unlike the hard kind, they see the good as a whole and may seem negative at times but at start of every season they believe in a good strong season.

And lastly we have the pessimistic: these fans tend to have seen the worst of the worst things like when the club was receiving hand outs from Sheffield teams. It's not their fault they are like that it's just like them beaten housewives you see in nasty films or tv programs they have been hurt so badly and let down so many times they can't see anything but bad things. You may ask them why don't you leave and move on and like most poor abused victims they will say I still love (him) the club in this case.

im neither a optimist or pessimist im more of a realist, says it how it is without any bias. At this moment in time i believe our squad is just short of the playoffs but with 1 more decent centre back, centre mid and a goal scorer we will get at least playoffs imo, hope this is addressed because we have 800k to spend.

I'm just a fan, I go every game regardless, not to go is never up for debate.

Sometimes I'm optimistic, sometimes pessimistic sometimes I think a players played very well when everyone else thinks he's had a shocker.

It all boils down to what you think the clubs Future is like mate like I said there are soft and hard optimists.

Do you think the club is doomed and will never achieve anything for all time do you wake up with thoughts like it will never ever happen for us so what's the point. If so then your a pessimist if not then your some kind of optimist because there is always hope in a optimist

I'm like 1000s of other fans who support unglamorous football clubs who's successes tend to be in little bursts once a decade or so. I appreciate them when they come around and they fill me with joy when they do.

I go to just about every game we play knowing we might get beat that day and for the last 3 seasons thinking we probably would. Again its been a lovely feeling when we've beaten sides who's resources/fan base totally dwarfs ours.

I know who my club is and it runs through my veins. I love Rotherham United and accept who we are.

Id love a Billionaire to invest in us and take us on a journey but I wouldn't ever lose sleep if it never happens.

I made a choice to support my team. My Dad took me to my first game 36 years ago, thanks Dad.

It must be so easy being a Chelsea/Man City/Man Utd/Liverpool fan, knowing pretty much for certain you're going to win nearly every home game and most aways.

I'm a soft optimist but never have, never will feel we are the best team in the world. We are my own town side so they get my support. Sheffield supporters from Rotherham if it's that good in Sheffield go & live there.
